Lucy is running from what she’s done, attacking that boy in her sleep. Pursued by nightmares, she makes for her big sister's house. But when she arrives, Jess is nowhere to be found. The clifftop town is strange and full of rumours. A dozen men disappeared, without a trace. Women’s voices murmuring on the waves. A foundling discovered in a sea-swept cave. As Lucy searches for Jess, her dreams draw ever closer. She can see a great ship in 1800, and two sisters bound together in its hull. She sees a world where men always seem to get their way. And something in her body wants to fight back.

But these tracks are the Tompte’s, and he is a friendly creature. Or at least that’s what Pippa hopes....
